Hi everyone,

Back in the days of Pylons 0.9.5, if you incorrectly filled out a form
in my app, submitted it, got an error, and then pressed the browser
back button, you would always get a copy of the form pre-filled with
the values that were there when it was submitted.  At some point since
then, something changed.  I don't know if it's Pylons, Firefox, or
Apache.


Now, there's two cases:

1) When my app runs under paster, it always behaves as above.  So in
my development environment, I can hit back, correct one field in a
form, and resubmit.  Great!

2) When my app runs in production, under Apache+fcgi, pressing back
always gives a blank form.


A few of the guys in the office have spent a bit looking at this
(they're the ones mostly affected, heh).  We've looked through a few
things: The HTTP headers from Paster and Apache are identical, the
HTTP headers sent from the client are identical.  The behavior is
consistent across multiple browsers and platforms (IE and Firefox on
Windows, Firefox on Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora).

Anyone have any ideas on what is causing this or what I can do to make
it not clear the form fields?
